not investment advice: no, you shouldn't. the spreads you get can be tighter (good when you want to buy and sell), and any hypothetical front running of your order would lead to miniscule slippage over the long-run. buying SPY and TLT is more or less the same experience in robinhood as it is in schwab, TDA, etc.

even as a day trader i wonder if it matters. i would be more annoyed that RH doesn't allow options on indices or futures, which leads to RH traders loading up on similar-but-not-identical products (eg USO as a substitute for oil futures or whatever VIX etf's remain standing)
